Cao Dai Temple at Tay Ninh

 

 

 

This is the main street in front of the Cao Dai Temple on the outskirts of Tay Ninh City.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tourists pose in the main gate to the Temple compound.

 

 

 

Inside the temple we are inundated by music from a large and beautiful sounding women's choir.

 

 

 

The choir is accompanied by an exotic orchestra. A large religious service is underway below us on the main floor.

 

 

 

Lots of color and pagentry.

 

 

 

The column on the left is a preview of the amazing architecture.

 

 

 

A view towards the front of the temple after the service has finished.

 

 

 

The view towards the altar shows the ornateness of the scene, overseen by the eye of god.

 

 

 

One of the many large windows.

 

 

 

The corridor outside the row of columns.

 

 

 

And the main doorway with cheerful greetors.
